There's some gorgeous knives here!  I wish mine could help me shovel snow :facepalm:. Mine has been used mainly to cut open packets for lunch and dinner.

Interesting, Borg. That seems a bit dramatic for such a short period of use.   :think:

RF, how is edge holding up? 

You've been giving that blade a lot of use. Have you felt the need to retouch the edge?

For normal use it holds up well, but I have abused it when scraping stuff and cutting things I wouldn't use my nice knives for so I had to sharpen it twice so far to sort out a rolled edge here and there. It sharpens up very quick though :like:

Your stomach thanks you!  :tu:
I think food prep takes 80% of the usages! Which is ok with me!  :cheers:

Day 21:

Ulu saw more kitchen duty.

I'm making some Goulash today, at Mrs Nix's request. The Ulu got used to cube a rib roast for the stew:




The sharp blade just sliced through the meat beautifully. I have to say, the keen edge and continuous curve make this a great slicer.




I'll put some more details about the actual dish in the Chili Thread a little later.  :tu:

Nice one Nix. Also benefits from having the weight of your hand when cutting, so less wrist strain.  :like:

So far, so good. And they do provide more grip.
